Suggest Treatment For Rapid Heart Rate After Eating Particular Food
I take Beta Blockers (100mg 2x a day) Medaphol Tartrate. When I eat any food with Tumeric in it, I get a reaction 4 to 6 hours later. Heartbeat skip to the point of very uncomfortable, and low energy. Usually subsides the next day after breakfast. EKG says it is not the dangerous kind. When I mention it to healthcare pros, including cardiologists, I get a blank stare or a laugh.
